Yep JZX161 Aristos <3

I favor those big time over the later gens.

We have the coupe here Andrew.

I don't live in New England.

wtf do you live now?

Aristo parts.

Yeah most of that shit will have to be imported.
And I'm guessing we got the shitty motor so that will have to be swapped.

[jdel]

so wtf do they have for aftermarket besides air/wheels?

Engine dude. Coilovers dude. Full suspension setups dude.


No. It has the 2JZ-GE. Pop a new headgasket in and a turbo kit and we are talking a reliable 350hp.

Stock motor is an NA 2JZ-GE

So just need a half cut on the Jap Aristo, straight swap everything over adn there is tons of support for 2JZs in the US to modify.

Ah thats not so bad.

[Dudermagee]

Would be pretty cool to have one all done up.

Exactly. So a "big" 4 door car that doesn't make me look like a boy racer but still has the same get up and go as the boy racers.

Thats going to be pricey. But with a 6 figure income that shouldnt be a problem.

[Dudermagee]

Did they come with a manual or were they all autotragics?

[coconutt]

All auto here.

It won't be all that pricey. Like I said, the car itself is under $5k. Turbo kits with all the little bits around $2500 for 350hp.

Automatic. All of them. R154 can be swapped in, but I may not do that til the winter.

The manual Turbo Aristos only sold in Japan

But then it would just be a sedan with a turbo, and thats not including all the other turbo BS stuff you will need.

Still would need coils, aero, wheels, etc etc.

I'm guess this will take around 30k or so. Not too bad, I have about 20 into my 240 and I haven't swapped the motor yet.

Started drilling out the spot welds on the core support. Oh god what am I doing?!
